The Voice UK 2018

The Voice UK - new to ITV Choice - will be broadcast within 24 hours of the UK premiere.

Pop sensation Olly Murs joins will.i.am, Sir Tom Jones and Jennifer Hudson to complete The Voice UK's panel of superstar coaches as the search for a new vocal talent returns.

Olly – who has notched up four UK No.1 albums and four No.1 singles – will climb into his red chair for the first time when the Blind auditions kick off in Salford.

The Essex lad first found fame on fellow ITV talent show The X Factor, coming second in 2009, and has since gone on to sell more than 17-million records worldwide.

Singer, songwriter, producer and entrepreneur will.i.am returns for his seventh season – the only coach to appear on The Voice UK since the very beginning.

Legendary artist Sir Tom Jones has had huge success in a career spanning six decades, selling more than 100-million records and clocking up 36 Top 40 hits in the UK and 19 in the US. He was awarded an OBE in 1999 and received a Knighthood for services to music in 2006.

Grammy-, Oscar- and BAFTA-winnng artist Jennifer Hudson returns after winning the 2017 season with her act Mo and fresh from her current stint as a coach on The Voice's US version, the first time a coach has ever appeared on two different versions of the show at the same time.

The singer, movie star and Broadway actress first found fame after her breakout Academy Award-winning performance in Dreamgirls, which followed her finalist-run on American Idol. She went on to make her recording debut with her self-titled album, selling millions of copies worldwide and garnering her first Grammy Award.

Emma Willis again returns to present The Voice UK after completing hosting duties on The Voice Kids in the off-season. The show also welcomes back Jamie Miller, a finalist on the last season, as the new backstage reporter, bringing all the behind the scenes gossip to The Voice UK's digital platforms.

Since appearing on the show, Jamie has signed a US recording deal with Atlantic Records.

This year's winner will again scoop a recording contract with music giants Polydor, home to global stars Take That and Ellie Goulding as well as the UK's biggest breakthrough artists including The 1975 and Years & Years.
